Sugar-Free White Chocolate Holiday Truffles

These creamy, melt-in-your-mouth truffles are so luxurious that no one will believe they’re sugar-free! The secret is using quality sugar-free white chocolate and a touch of cream cheese for that perfectly silky texture. They’re gorgeous on a holiday dessert tray and make wonderful gifts too—just don’t tell anyone they’re guilt-free until after they’ve had three!
Sugar-Free White Chocolate Holiday Truffles
Ingredients
Method
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 8 oz of the white chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).
- Add the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and salt to the melted chocolate. Beat with an electric mixer until completely smooth and creamy with no lumps, about 2 minutes.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm enough to scoop and roll into balls.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a small cookie scoop or teaspoon, scoop the truffle mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
- Melt the remaining 4 oz of white chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- Roll each truffle ball in the melted white chocolate, then immediately roll in cocoa powder, crushed raspberries, or sprinkles. Place back on the parchment paper.
- Refrigerate truffles for at least 1 hour before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
